Throttle area flow data

Looking to see if anyone at MoTeC has the proper flow data for GM LS7 90mm electronic throttle to enter into the "Throttle Area" table. I just have it setup as a linear graph right now and it works. Just wondering if I can do better.

Thank you

Bob

Hi Bob,

To be honest, it isn't an area that we test on the throttle bodies when we do a calibration for them, as this would require the TB's to be run on a flow bench to generate the numbers. With the Throttle Area table, you can leave this as a linear graph, and it will work, as you have found, or you can change it to suit.

This table also allows for you to change the feel of the throttle, so you can make the throttle response quicker or slower by having the throttle plate open at a non linear rate to the throttle pedals movement.
